With Christmas just around the corner, it’s a great time to start planning celebrations with family, friends, or colleagues in an extra-special way.
If your budget won’t stretch to a trip to Lapland, you don’t need to travel far for a White Christmas when the Metaverse awaits.
OTHERWORLD is one of the UK’s most popular virtual reality experiences, packing in an impressive 16 different gaming and entertainment experiences, with mini-games at its heart. But, only for the month of December, the tropical island is transformed and the weather forecast is for snow!
You can reach this festive VR world from central Birmingham, just minutes from New Street Station.
Whether you visit as a couple, with friends, or on a work do, you’ll all step into your multi-sensory immersion pods. You’ll find yourselves together on a beautiful island, where you can feel the wind in your hair and the quake of a new world beneath your feet.
Or, if you’re in need of some winter sun, you can make a dash for the beach and rave away beneath the warm (virtual) sunshine.
Beyond the island, a range of adventures awaits. You can battle the zombie apocalypse deep in Arizona, swing from tree to tree discovering secrets of the ancients, and attempt to survive Five Nights at Freddy’s. Or why not take some mates along and test your virtual aim in a multiplayer shooting game?
OTHERWORLD Birmingham has a 16-tap electronic self-serve bar serving beers, cocktails, and soft drinks to add to the seasonal festivities.
If all that high-tech wasn’t already enough, there’s more. All your achievements in the virtual world earn you DreamCoin: a virtual currency you can spend on drinks discounts in the real world, making that first ice-cold sip even more well-earned.
For December, OTHERWORLD’s esteemed creator, Dr. Horatio Sands, is giving away Double DreamCoin, and has also scattered festive DreamCoin across the resort as a special Christmas gift for his guests - which means you’ll rack up the discounts even faster.
OTHERWORLD landed in Birmingham in Summer 2022 and is one of the city’s leading VR attractions. OTHERWORLD’s London venues have had rave reviews from BBC, Vogue, Financial Times and TimeOut, with celebrity guests including Adele, Skepta, KSI and fnatic.
Peak times are filling up fast, but there’s still space to book that last-minute Christmas party over at OTHERWORLD’s website.
